Short summary
We present a model for water and sediment transport in a small catchment. For the water balance, we use a simple hydrological model that can explain the observed sudden increase in river flow between storm events. This model drives a hydraulic model of the river, which is needed to determine erosion and sedimentation in the river. Sediments are mainly generated in urban areas as the topography of the catchment is smooth. During storm events, erosion and deposition in the river becomes relevant.
